Blind Lemon Jefferson - Dry Southern Blues lyrics

My mind leads me to take a trip down south Well, my mind leads me to take a trip down south Take a trip down south and stop at the fatmouth's house One train left the depot with the red and blue light behind Train left the depot with the red and blue light behind Well, the blue light's the blues, the red light's a worried mind I hate to tell you, sugar, it 'tain't nobody there Well, I hate to tell you, it 'tain't nobody there If a man stay here, he'll stay most anywhere I got up this mornin', ramblin' for my shoes I got up this mornin', ramblin' for my shoes The little woman served me a saucer full of worried blues Uncle Sam was no woman, but didn't he draft your man Uncle Sam was no woman, but didn't he draft your man Tell me them good lookin' womens on the border raisin' sand Well, women on the border's drinkin' over the water trough I say, women on the border's drinkin' over the water trough I wished Uncle Sam would hurry up and pay these soldiers off I can't drink coffee and the woman won't make no tea Man, I can't drink coffee and the woman won't make no tea I believe to my soul sweet mama gonna hoodoo me Asked the girl did she love me, said, "Lemon, I don't nohow" Asked that girl did she love me, said, "Lemon, I don't nohow" Cause of me commentatin', "Yes, I love you sky high" She had feet like a monkey, head like a teddy bear Feet like a monkey, head like a teddy bear And a mouth full of Levi Garrett, skeetin' it everywhere I got a girl in Cuba, I've got a girl in Spain I got a girl in Cuba, I've got a girl in Spain I've got a brown yonder in Dallas, I'm afraid to call her name
